Wow! I recall a set of 1954 $20s with the same serial numbers. Any one of the three would be the centerpiece of most people's collections.

Any idea what those might go for, ball park figure?

May I ask which auction these notes will be offered on? Thanks in advance!

$15,000 for the solid 9999999
$20,000 for the 10 mil note
$22,500 for #0000001 according to the 26th Ed of CGPM

-no doubt: each of these is a "trophy" note.

First thing I would buy if I win Lotto Max this Friday

Holly cow, i would also buy after a lottery win!

I think this is the 1954 $20 set that you are referring to.

Don't worry, it's way out of my budget at the moment.

It will be interesting to see what they sell for, I am sure someone will be watching and report back for the rest of us.
